2011 Reg Tests: Scubapro MK11/C300


2011 Reg Tests: Scubapro MK11

Scubapro MK11/C300

PRICE RANGE
$350-$500

SPECS
» Ports 2HP,4LP
» 1st Stage Balanced diaphragm
» 2nd Stage Unbalanced
» MSRP $475
www.scubapro.com

**PERFORMANCE
**» Simulator 4-5 (Very Good to Excellent)
» Real World 3-4 (Good to Very Good)

**FEATURES **
The Scubapro MK11/C300 had excellent scores in all but the most demanding simulator tests, and very good results in real-world diving. Benefiting from a balanced-diaphragm first stage, two of the MK 11’s four low-pressure ports are high-flow design, increasing airflow 15 percent more than conventional LP ports, which might have contributed to the excellent ANSTI scores. The new C300 second stage is light- weight, and features an Optimal Flow Design valve for increased and reliable airflow and improved breathing effort. Our testers liked the venturi and cracking pressure adjustments, and found both had a solid feel and were easy to use.

**BOTTOM LINE **
With some excellent test scores and a great price, the MK11/C300 is a sweet-breathing reg.
